Property Prices....

Recommended Posts

Thus, i say, hdb is reaching a point when it's max out liao. Please note that mine is a pte.

It was Therat that illustrated very well how the current HDB valuation works, in another thread which I can't place.

In my view, that valuation process is really flawed.

JTC portfolio is mainly pte and commerical. thus, it make sense for them to move out of the hdb market to where there will be better return. It is like, if i have $100.. to put in investment A, i earn 4-6%. but if i put in $100 in investment B, i will earn 30-40%. Of course it make sense to cash out. Note also that JTC recently acquired other real estate.

Very true.

Cheers!

Flawed , but it was there in the first place to amend another flawed policy. Still remember long long time ago alot of rogue seller/buyer/agent cohort to cheat the banks/cpf by returning the "excess" to the buyer. I believe that that's probably the first item on KBH is going to tackle next. Let's see what he come up with.

Government will make housing affordable definitely for mid to low income. But that's in the form of hdb. So beware of more policies to control public housing. As for pte housing, i think the government may loosen up, given that they also want to keep investment $$ in singapore cos' the buying didnt stop. Sg and foreigner investors are just turning to malaysia and other asean countries.

Prices of landed homes have appreciated more than non-landed properties during an upturn and fallen by a smaller magnitude during a market downturn.

True la, just like any investment, timing is important mah. Nothing goes up in a straight-line. So your relatives bought at or near the last peak then how?

Also, in my view, it is important to differentiate the different tenures of landed. There are FH, LH 999-years, LH 99-years, Strata etc. URA's method of calculating/publishing the transacted prices of landed also causing confusions somewhat to newbies (and sellers too in some cases).

And then there is the buyer's intend; if he/she wants to build his/her dream house, then not only the land's tenure is important but also the plot (rectagular, squarish, irregular etc?). It is not like there is always one that fits his/her requirements.

Cheers!

not sure how to read the chart given.

If the chart is according to transaction value/psf. Then it may show landed has the highest risks since it drop with the highest gradient and didnt recover until the 2nd cycle.

One of my friends she was very fast in all aspects. She bought a FH landed about 2000 sqf at Chiselhurst Grove, Serangoon Garden at $1.0 mil in 4Q 2009. Demolished the old dwelling, and reconstructed a 2.5-storeys terraced at $0.5 mil and she sold it 1Q 2011 for $2.0 mil. Profit was $0.5 mil, not bad for just over a year.

Since then, she has been renting a condo apartment, waiting for prices to fall...
